First problem for Android is that multicast packets are dropped, I don't follow each version but other projects desiring an efficient mobile communication medium have had to resort to plain broadcast. Zbeacon is an example of this.

Thanks for the tip. Do you have experience with Zbeacon with JeroMQ on Android? Is it well supported?

I believe it is used by Samsung for many different apps, you can get support through the ZeroMQ mailing list or commercially through iMatix. There are active discussions this month.

I just read here, Android supports Multicast. You just have to obtain a lock. This should allow a pure-Java PGM implementation for Android.
